• WESTOWER COMMUNICATIONS

 

JUNE 2014

Starting position- Foreman/23h

 

Responsibilities- Everything listed above the only reason I left this company, is mastec bought them out and work ceased every one left really I loved the company their structure and how they handled safety my checks were never missed or messed up and the pm’s and cm’s were very knowledgable. But at the end of the day I have a family to feed .

 

• MTSI

OCTOBER 2014/ CURRENT

 

Starting position- Foreman/23h

I Started this company knowing its reputation but was insured that many things had changed regarding safety, they were one of the only companies at the time that I could find close to home that were providing work, and I can stand to say that it is one of the most unorganized and unsafe places that I have ever worked for, no jha’s, no anything really, I tried running things effectively and safely but the hands there are set in there ways always taking unnecessary risks that would only take a few extra min to avoid. And simply I don’t want to be involved when someone gets hurt drastically. 

 

 

To whom it may concern:

Truth is that I can go on and on about what I know how to do and if you’re a true pm or cm you’re not going to buy it until your proven because it’s something that you have heard a 100 times over, I am tired of jumping from company to company I want a place that I can call home and that I can respect enough that when its rough and in a slow period  I want to stick through.  By slow I mean at least (35-40) a week so I am able to survive.  As a possible future employee the only thing that I ask is the chance to show you that I am capable of what I claim. I have no problems traveling or working hard my moto that I have come to learn in this industry is I don’t have problems I find solutions.
